Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place candy (except caramels) in separate small bowls. Insert a craft stick into stem end of each apple.

Place caramels and cream in a heavy saucepan and heat on medium-low, stirring, until caramels have melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.

Hold an apple by its stick over pot and spoon caramel over apple to coat, allowing excess to drip back into pot (if caramel gets too stiff, reheat for a minute or 2 to loosen). Press candy into caramel on apple and place apple, stick side up, on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining apples and candy. Let apples stand until caramel has cooled, about 10 minutes.

Hello~I've just strolled into your blog for my first visit...I've enjoyed taking a peek at your past posts. You've got so many wonderful projects and recipes. I've got a white cat who has cute little pink ears like the kitty in your photo.

The one thing that could cheer me up as I watched summer close was... the anticipation of fall and all the autumnal colors that come with it. Providing creative inspiration like yours.

I've bookmarked you in my favs.I look forward to coming by your charming blog again.Come by for a visit. Your company would be nice.

Sharing my thoughts...

Let's keep in touch...

Mercy helps you understand why a person did something, and have compassion for him, without approving of what he did. ~Author unknown

Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, "What, you too? I thought I was the only one.”~ C.S. Lewis

If I could reach up and hold a star for every time you've made me smile, the entire evening sky would be in the palm of my hand. ~author unknown

"I want first of all...to be at peace with myself. I want a singleness of eye, a purity of intention, a central core to my life that will enable me to carry out these obligations and activities as well as I can. I want, in fact - to borrow from the language of the saints - to live "in grace" as much of the time as possible. By grace I mean an inner harmony, essentially spiritual, which can be translated into outward harmony. I would like to achieve a state of inner spiritual grace from which I could function and give as I was meant to in the eye of God..." ~ Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Gift from the Sea

"...generally, by the time you are real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand..." The Velveteen Rabbit (the Skin Horse)

To believe is to know that every day is a new beginning. It is to trust that miracles happen, and dreams really do come true. To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds; to know the wonder of a stardust sky and the wisdom of the man in the moon. To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,the innocence of a child’s eyes and the beauty of an aging hand. For it is through their teachings we learn to love. To believe is to find the strength and courage that lies within us. When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again. To believe is to know we are not alone; that life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it. To believe is to know that wonderful surprises are just waiting to happen, and all our hopes and dreams are within reach. If only we believe. ~ Author Unknown

"What I expect from my male friends is that they are polite and clean. What I expect from my female friends is unconditional love, the ability to finish my sentences for me when I am sobbing, a complete and total willingness to pour their hearts out to me, and the ability to tell me why the meat thermometer isn't supposed to touch the bone." ~Anna Quindlen, Living Out Loud.

For my mother. I will always and forever love you. I will always and forever miss you...

"I must make my own way..."

~Beatrix Potter

To live content with small means, to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich, to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never, in a word to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common, this is to be my symphony. - William Henry Channing

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. - Marcel Proust

There can be no other occupation like gardening in which, if you were to creep up behind someone at their work, you would find them smiling. ~Mirabel Osler
